That time of the week has arrived when we give you the sad news of what’s leaving. Netflix always has a tiny moment where you scroll through your list, spot a little red date next to a title, and feel that mild jolt of the fact that you won’t be able to watch it again on the platform.

This week has a few surprising exits, including shows that have been comfort rewatches for ages and films that deserve a final run before they disappear. Nothing dramatic, just the usual shuffle that reminds you to catch the ones you have been bookmarking since summer.

The biggest shake comes on November 17th, which pulls out two very different titles. Starting with See You on Venus, which is one of those soft teen dramas that many people discovered accidentally on a Saturday night and then cried through without warning. It is light, and it has that summery glow that feels very much like something you watch on a quiet evening.

Alongside it leaves Trolls: The Beat Goes On! Yes, eight full seasons of colour and music that kids rewatch tirelessly, which means parents might want to squeeze in one last binge before the dance breaks leave the homepage.

The departures slow down a bit on November 18th with The Good Detective season one. If you love steady, grounded crime stories, this one deserves more attention, especially because it is quite character-driven. Netflix has been rotating Korean titles more frequently, so this is a good time to watch it if it has been sitting on your list.

By November 20th, another long-running favourite steps out: Flavorful Origins season one. It has been a quiet gem for food lovers for years, mostly because it is so soothing and the rest because it introduces regional Chinese dishes that never appear in mainstream food shows.

On November 21st, things get a little heavier with Hostiles. Here, Christian Bale gives such an amazing performance that it stays with you. If you have been in the mood for something serious, this is a good time to slot it in. The same date also removes Shahs of Sunset seasons three and four. Reality fans know exactly what those seasons meant with that peak unfiltered energy you do not see on television anymore.

November 22nd takes away San Andreas, a film that has no business being as entertaining as it is. It is pure spectacle with a massive scale, and it is very easy to rewatch even when you know exactly how every scene plays out.

Finally, November 23rd marks the exit of Greater, a sports biographical film that has been made for viewers who enjoy true stories that lean into sincerity. If you have not watched it, the weekend is your last chance.
